Chapter 1829: Chapter 1339: Dissatisfaction_4
Feng Lu: "How did Dad find out about this today?"
Old Master Feng: "I inquired about it."
"But I’m just not happy about it!"
Feng Lu suddenly stood up: "No, I have to go find that woman Kang Li and get answers from her. Why didn’t she tell me that Luo Ming Rui topped the entrance exam, or notify me about the celebration banquet!"
"Sit down!"
Old Master Feng scolded: "You were indifferent to the child and abandoned him early on, so where do you get the audacity to question Comrade Kang?"
"Dad..."
Feng Lu felt wronged.
Old Master Feng: "Tell me why you came over today."
"Nothing important, just came to see you."
Feng Lu’s words had no sincerity at all.
Old Master Feng, wise in his old age, obviously picked up on that, but he didn’t mind. Instead, he asked, "You haven’t been quarreling with Han Bin recently, have you?"
"We’re not young anymore, so there’s no point in fighting. Besides, life is life, and I won’t allow myself to be frustrated every day."
Separate bedrooms, nothing to say when they see each other; that’s her life now.
But it doesn’t bother her much anymore. After all, the man can’t function, so whatever he does outside doesn’t matter, he’s powerless.
Old Master Feng: "Couples should understand each other more. You know you’re not young anymore, so stop throwing tantrums in front of Han Bin for no reason."
Feng Lu: "I’m not."
"It’s best if you aren’t."
Old Master Feng said, "If there’s nothing else, go back."
Feng Lu: "Then I’m leaving."
Old Master Feng waved his hand.
As she walked out of the courtyard, Feng Lu headed towards the bus stop. Unexpectedly, a familiar yet strange male voice called her name.
Stopping her steps, Feng Lu looked up, and the next moment, she immediately averted her gaze, pretending not to see him, anxiously hoping the bus would arrive soon.
"Are you pretending you don’t know me?"
Hu Yi approached Feng Lu, his eyes smiling but not genuine.
"Stay away from me. I don’t know you!"
Feng Lu glared coldly at him.
"Are you sure? I took care of you quite a lot abroad, didn’t I? You took the chance when I was not home to steal all my money. Feng Lu, don’t tell me you forgot about that?"
Yes, Hu Yi was the young man who went abroad with Feng Lu at the Feng family’s request to take care of her back then.
"I said I don’t know you. If you keep bothering me, don’t blame me for calling the police!"
Feng Lu’s face was extremely unpleasant. She didn’t expect him to return to the country because he had once told her he planned to stay abroad after finishing his studies.
"Fine, go ahead and call the police, or I can accompany you to the nearest police station right now."
Hu Yi was filled with mockery: "Feng Lu, I was waiting for you here, didn’t expect to actually run into you. Now that you’ve met me, if you don’t want me to make a scene, return the money you took from me years ago, or I won’t hesitate to tell your husband about your doings abroad."
Hu Yi returned half a year ago because he couldn’t make it abroad anymore. He decided to come back for opportunities, but with his lofty standards, he hasn’t found a suitable job yet.
As a state-dispatched student, returning upon completion meant he wouldn’t have to worry about work, but since he chose to stay abroad past his term, he breached the agreement. Therefore, upon his return, the state wouldn’t arrange a job for him.
Moreover, he didn’t learn much during his overseas studies, in simple terms, he didn’t acquire real skills. Coupled with his high standards, he couldn’t find a good job quickly, and he looked down on poorly paid ones. With no income and only expenditures, life became increasingly difficult.
So, Hu Yi set his sights on Feng Lu.
Demanding the money she took abroad was just an excuse. His true motive was to use Feng Lu to connect with the Feng family, leveraging Old Master Feng’s connections to get a good job.
"You..."
Feng Lu was cornered by Hu Yi.
"Don’t want to pay up? Then talk to your old man about arranging a job for me."
Hearing this, Feng Lu immediately grasped his true intent for approaching her. She said, "So that was your intention all along. But didn’t you know my dad has already retired? How is he supposed to arrange work for you?"
Hu Yi: "I believe your father has plenty of connections."
"You’re a returned overseas student, is there no place willing to hire you?"
Feng Lu suddenly scoffed: "Could it be that you didn’t learn anything during your studies abroad, and that’s why no companies want you now?"
On hearing her words, Hu Yi couldn’t help but be annoyed and embarrassed: "Just tell me whether you’ll do as I say."
"..."
Feng Lu remained silent.
Hu Yi urged her in a lower voice: "Have you decided?"
"You want money, right? I’ll give you!"
Feng Lu pulled out a wad of cash from her bag and stuffed it into Hu Yi’s hand: "Is this enough? Don’t ever let me see you again!" As the bus came by, she glared fiercely at Hu Yi, then hurried to get on.
Little did she know, giving him money was like opening a floodgate, feeding his greed, treating her like an ATM, seeking her out whenever he was broke.
...
After a week’s vacation in Kun City, Kang Li returned to Northern City with Captain Kang, his wife, and all the kids, alongside Jiang Hongfa. Soon after, the new school term report day arrived.
Kang Li was quite busy this day, delivering Ming Rui to North University to handle enrollment at noon, taking Ming Han and Ming Wei to register at their new school in the afternoon, and then enrolling the three little ones at the affiliated primary school of Shuimu University.
Speaking of, thanks to excellent middle school entrance exam results, Ming Han and Ming Wei gained admission to the high school department of Shuimu University Affiliated Middle School.
In the future, it would be much more convenient for Kang Li to commute the kids to and from school.
"Mom, tomorrow, we and our fourth and fifth brothers will officially become primary school students!"
After getting Ming Rui, Ming Han, and the three little ones enrolled, Kang Li drove her five kids back to the courtyard. Just as they got out of the car, Guo Guo excitedly exclaimed.
"Mm-hmm."
Kang Li nodded with a smile.
"Grandma! Grandpa! I’m about to become a primary school student!"
Pacing with short legs, Guo Guo ran to find Captain Kang and Cai Xiufang, with Tuanzi and Tangyuan following behind, all three little ones delighted about becoming primary school students.
"Mom, look how happy they are!"
Ming Wei said with a smile.
"You’re about to become high school students; aren’t you just as happy?"
Kang Li’s eyes were filled with warmth: "Time flies. In three more years, you two will face the college entrance examinations. Do your best!"
She was undoubtedly speaking to both Ming Han and Ming Wei.
Ming Han was confident: "What Big Brother can do, I can do too. Mom, just wait and see!"
